blog post entitled "The Saints Not Politics is Our Common Ground." I hope that post gets restored here. It was that post that made up my mind that B&G was the site for me.

This is not a demand, just a wish. I wish we could leave our politics out of this and just think of each other as fans. To quote myself again:

Everybody have a rockin weekend.

.. you know?... you look like Frank Mir. I think is the hair and the forehead...

You weren't paying attention. Conservatives were very disappointed that Republicans were spending like Democrats. Well, until Democrats took spending to a completely new stratosphere in 2009.

Granted, Republicans were funding 2 wars and recovering from 911, but we were very disappointed in excessive social spending. Its what defines conservativism.

Oh, and Democrats held the House and Senate for 2006, 2007, and 2008.

It's like Jesus said.... "Be Not Of This World". That's why I don't vote.
I'm waiting for my 1000 years. Wait, did I just bring religion to this discussion?

I'm not referring just to social spending. Not only did the Republicans spend money like they were Democrats, they enacted laws that trampled all over our Constitutional rights "for our safety". On a side note, and going back to Fox News, 7 years later, I find it really amusing to see Glenn Beck have a cow over it when the Democrats apply those same acts and laws in practice.

But that is why, as one great man once said, "I don't lean left, I don't lean right, but the opposite"

Hey, I resemble that remark!

At least FoxNews gives you all the news and both sides of the issues so you can decide for yourself. The major networks spoon feed you just what they want you to know. They have a very low opinion of their own viewers.
